NSAIDS, stretching. Pain control can be achieved with nsaids and reducing activity temporarily. Once the pain has improved, stretching and strengthening the muscles of your lower leg below the knee will help to prevent recurrence.

Change it up. If you have shin splints you should take a week off of high impact activities. Use ibuprofen, ice and a shin splint neoprene sleeve to help alleviate the pain. Come up with a new exercise plan that rotates activities to avoid repetitive pounding which will reactivate the shin pain.

Multiple things. Orthotics will help if the underlying reason is flat feet. Proper running mechanics play a large role as well. Sometimes silicone heel cups and a stretching regimen can do he trick too. The orthotics don't necessarily need to be custom. Otc types will usually work.

Shin splints. Aspirin or NSAID's, ice after activity. Orthotic devices if feet are abnormally flat . There are compresssion sleeves designed just for the leg; they go from below the knee to above the ankle. If you don't get better, consider a stress fracture of the tibia; x-rays, bone scan or MRI would help diagnose.

Less impact activity. Generally shin splints are treated by a period of rest and decreased impact aerobic activity to avoid progression to a frank tibial (leg bone) stress fracture. A removeable boot (cam walker) is often prescribed. Maintaining aerobic fitness is important with non- impact activities, such as: swimming, biking, and using an elliptical trainer to name a few. If pain persists or progresses, see your md.

Stretching. Both before and after excercises. Orthotics or arch supports are helpful to get rid of the shin sprints as my controlling foot position you can take strain off the lower leg. An alternative is shin splint or braces which are commercially available.

Rest. Shin splints are treated with ice, anti-inflammatory medication, and strengthening of the lower leg, thigh, and core muscles. Sometimes shoe inserts are used to correct any issues found with the foot, ie - pronation, flat feet, high arches, etc. that may contribute to shin splints. Resting from activities that cause pain until symptoms resolve also helps. Also helpful to rule out stress fractur.

Change it up. Stop high impact activities for at least a week. Ice the shins, take Ibuprofen or aleve (naproxen) and get a shin neoprene sleeve. Go back to the high impact activity slowly and come up with a rational plan to rotate exercises to prevent recurrence.

Ice, rest, stretchin. Probably the most important thing would be
to avoid whatever exercise was causing the
problem
after that the treatment would be a combination of ice, stretching and nsaids
sometimes show modification can be helpful

Resistance condition. Resistance conditioning should help. Try putting a bean bag on the top of your foot and then bending your ankle to lift your toes up. As you lift your toes tip them so the sole of your foot faces outward. That motion should strengthen the muscle that is usually responsible for shin splints. Work at just below the level of any discomfort and slowly build up. Later, tip toe balancing to strengthen.
